Sinossi
Superbo' David Aaronovitch, The Times 'Un resoconto incisivo che ti tiene incollato alla pagina' Financial Times 'Gli ultimi giorni del Terzo Reich sono stati spesso raccontati, ma raramente con la verve, la percezione e l'eleganza della ricca narrazione di Volker Ullrich' Richard Overy, autore di The Bombing War 1 maggio 1945. Il mondo non lo sapeva ancora, ma l'ultima settimana di esistenza del Terzo Reich era iniziata. Hitler era morto, ma la guerra non era ancora finita. Tutto si era fermato e tuttavia rimaneva dolorosamente incerto. Lo straordinario libro di Volker Ullrich trasporta il lettore in un mondo diviso tra speranza e terrore, violenza e pace. Ullrich descrive come si svolge ogni giorno, con la Germania ora sotto un nuovo Führer, l'ammiraglio Dönitz, di stanza in modo improbabile nella piccola città baltica di Flensburg. Con Hitler morto, Berlino in rovina e la guerra indubbiamente persa, il processo con cui i combattimenti sarebbero terminati rimaneva orribilmente poco chiaro. Molti importanti nazisti erano ancora in libertà, continuavano a circolare voci selvagge su un'ultima resistenza sulle Alpi e sugli alleati occidentali che si stavano separando dall'Unione Sovietica. In tutta Europa, milioni di soldati, prigionieri, lavoratori schiavi e innumerevoli famiglie esauste, addolorate e spesso senza casa osservavano e attendevano la fine della guerra. Eight Days in May è la storia di persone, per usare la sorprendente espressione di Erich Kästner, bloccate ''nel divario tra non più e non ancora''. ''Un racconto veloce e brillante degli ultimi giorni turbolenti del Terzo Reich, con tutta l'energia e il caos di una tela di Jackson Pollock'' Helmut Walser Smith, autore di Germany: A Nation in its Time.

Paperback. Condizione: New. 'Superb' David Aaronovitch, The Times 'A punchy account that is a proper page-turner' Financial Times 'The last days of the Third Reich have often been told, but seldom with the verve, perception and elegance of Volker Ullrich's rich narrative' Richard Overy, author of The Bombing War 1 May 1945. The world did not know it yet, but the final week of the Third Reich's existence had begun. Hitler was dead, but the war had still not ended. Everything had both ground to a halt and yet remained agonizingly uncertain. Volker Ullrich's remarkable book takes the reader into a world torn between hope and terror, violence and peace. Ullrich describes how each day unfolds, with Germany now under a new Führer, Admiral Dönitz, based improbably in the small Baltic town of Flensburg. With Hitler dead, Berlin in ruins and the war undoubtedly lost, the process by which the fighting would end remained horrifyingly unclear. Many major Nazis were still on the loose, wild rumours continued to circulate about a last stand in the Alps and the Western allies falling out with the Soviet Union. All over Europe, millions of soldiers, prisoners, slave labourers and countless exhausted, grief-stricken and often homeless families watched and waited for the war's end. Eight Days in May is the story of people, in Erich Kästner's striking phrase, stuck in 'the gap between no longer and not yet'. 'A fast-paced, brilliant recounting of the turbulent last days of the Third Reich, with all the energy and chaos of a Jackson Pollock canvas' Helmut Walser Smith, author of Germany: A Nation in its Time.
